Yeah they’re good now. In the early days they had a lot of quirks and also a lot of people weren’t settling them up correctly so older support posts have a lot of negative guff. But with their new setup and support apps (Unifi+wifiman) the success rate of getting things working how you want for a first timer is much higher these days.

Their new policy VPN routing and DNS filtering options in the ultra and max units makes the loss of full x-sense control less of an issue.

I used to have 2 gateways one pfsense VM and one physical to sort out filtering and stuff but I switched to ubiquiti and it does everything I need in one easy to manage unit again.

I use idrive e2. When I did the math it’s yearly up front cost works out what deep archive is without an egress fee and it’s quicker. In the fine print there is a fair use policy on downloads but I think it’s 5x the storage amount.

Deep archive storage alone without puts is $24 TB year. idrive is $15 first year $30 subsequent. But it behaves more like s3 standard instant retrieval which is much more expensive.

Small company but have been around a long time now.
